Thanks for your support,

ondemand frequency is working in dom0 now (on M2NBP-VM CSM Mainboard and
Athlon 64 X2 5000+ CPU).

If I run cpu-intensive tasks (mprime) in a domU frequency switches to max
2.6Ghz.

Thats great and a new feature - but I get these warnings in the syslog of my
domU that were reported anywhere on the mailinglist around October:

Jan 19 00:11:09 server kernel: printk: 14 messages suppressed.

This happens also if I switch manually with cpufreq-set -f 2.60GHz of
cpufrequtils.

I can't see any problems except the warnings...
